Executive Search for Canadian Leaders
Tell us the role. We’ll find the leader who fits. The Canadian Leadership Association runs executive search for employers across Canada. We identify, approach and assess senior leaders and board directors, including people who aren’t actively looking, and bring you a focused shortlist of candidates ready to lead.
How it works
- Define the role. We meet with you to understand the position, your culture and what success looks like.
- Search and assess. We research the market, approach candidates directly and through the CLA network, and assess each one for leadership, experience and fit.
- Meet your shortlist. You interview a small group of qualified candidates, not a pile of résumés.
- Support the hire. Once your new leader starts, CLA workshops and courses help them succeed in the role.
Roles we help fill
- Executives and senior leaders
- Directors and managers
- First-time supervisors and team leads
- Board directors and committee members
Why CLA
- Leadership is our focus. We know what strong leadership looks like because we teach it.
- A network built through our work. Leaders from our programs, workshops and courses across Canada.
- Development after the hire. New leaders get the training to ramp up faster.
